ebr 16169 Posted October 9, 2017 Posted October 9, 2017 I’d use it instead of the AppleTV app. Just out of curiosity, why?
ShoutingMan 101 Posted October 29, 2017 Posted October 29, 2017 Just out of curiosity, why? TiVo is my primary content device. Having an Emby App on it would be easier to get to and so get more use than having it on the AppleTV. I use the TiVo daily. Its Netflix app is better than the one on the AppleTV. For background music, I use cable tv music stations, via the Tivo, or the Pandora app in the TiVo. For quick YouTube, I'll screencast from the iPad to the TiVo. I'm an Apple household, but the AppleTV just doesn't do much for me, and I use it infrequently.
Rew452 15 Posted October 30, 2017 Posted October 30, 2017 I now see Vewd Store instead of Opera but still no Emby. Any updates? Rew

My Tivo is my main device shown on my TV 90% of the time. Now that Tivo has released the Hydra interface, what are the chances of releasing a native app like Plex and the 24 other apps listed? https://zatznotfunny.com/2017-10/how-to-upgrade-to-tivo-hydra/
Luke 42077 Posted October 30, 2017 Posted October 30, 2017 The last submission was rejected due to a problem with the onscreen keyboard not showing for some old device i haven't heard of. So we have to figure that out and then re-submit. Thanks.

Luke 42077 Posted October 30, 2017 Posted October 30, 2017 It is an Opera app but I don't see why you're worried about that because once you launch the app you're not even going to know the difference.

Well it's more of a user experience issue. To open the Vewd store, it takes several steps taking a half a minute or more. You then have to go their Apps section (or Favorites), then launch the app. With the new Hydra interface, you can now create Home Shortcuts to any of your App. I have one for Plex & Netflx which I can launch with the click of a single number button. I guess my real question is what the level of effort required is to submit a native app as opposed to an Opera app?

Luke 42077 Posted December 13, 2017 Posted December 13, 2017 We are still working on getting the Opera TV app released. Thanks.
Rew452 15 Posted December 15, 2017 Posted December 15, 2017 Ok, thanks really looking forward to having it as it will unify my system. Will be anxiously waiting. Rew
jlharper59 0 Posted January 6, 2018 Posted January 6, 2018 Same here. I've been forced to use Plex until this comes out I miss my Emby!!!
Evans46f 0 Posted March 27, 2018 Posted March 27, 2018 Any update on this? Looks like it's been in the works for years now... Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk

mcleanp 2 Posted March 27, 2018 Posted March 27, 2018 I finally tried this in Vewd TV app using the loader, is there a native app inside vewd? It seems a little too much to go from the Tivo --> apps --> vewd --> favorites--> url loader -->selecting the previously used emby URL --> then go id like to be able to use emby in the vewd favorites directly.
Luke 42077 Posted March 27, 2018 Posted March 27, 2018 That's only temporary until we are released into the Vewd Store. Then the url loader won't be needed anymore.
Evans46f 0 Posted March 27, 2018 Posted March 27, 2018 So did you guy's give up on a native tivo app? Gonna have to go back to using Plex.... Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk
Luke 42077 Posted March 27, 2018 Posted March 27, 2018 No but Vewd will cover Tivo and a lot of other devices as a first step.
MainMonkey 0 Posted June 24, 2020 Posted June 24, 2020 BUMP! I really would like to get an Emby app on the Tivo like plex has (i cant stand plex but LOVE LOVE LOVE Emby)
